Clean a toilet Huck Finn style





This is an usual thing to post, 
but I thought you might need a laugh
to start off your week right.

Last week our granddaughter was visiting us.
After she used the commode,
I noticed some stains in the bowl.

If you're a Flylady follower,
then you've heard of swish and swipe.
Obviously, I must have been behind a bit.

So, I squirted some old shampoo
(Flylady says soap is soap.)
in the bowl and started scrubbing.



Cate asked if she could help.
What?
Somebody actually wants to scrub the toilet?
I gladly passed her the baton brush.

I bet she scrubbed for 20 minutes.
I kept leaving to hang up clothes in my closet.



When I came back, I discovered her fascination.
Shampoo makes a lot of bubbles if you scrub for a long time.


I wish I had known this trick when her
mother was at home.

My daughter always wanted to scrub toilets when she was younger -- something she learned from grandma for sure! Never thought of shampoo.
